I dont have the game, but I want to know about the techtree, what kind of technologies can you have?

Are there Fighters in the game? Or Bombers? or only Capital Ships? Can you make Carrier ships?
Can you destroy planets with a big enough bomb? Or turn stars into blackholes?

-Is there a weapon/device that destroys stars?

-Is there a device/method that creates artificial orbital population centers, planets, and stars?(See my signature.)

There is a way to destroy planets.

This comment about "planet destroyer" is intriguing.
-Is it just a scary, ship class name or is their a weapon/device that destroys planets?
-Is there a weapon/device that destroys stars?
-Is there a device/method that creates artificial orbital population centers, planets, and stars?

It's a Death Star - only destroys planets.

Here's the tech tree :

Some of those areas of research will give you different component though, e.g. Computers concerns Commerce Centers, Command Centers, Targeting Computers, while Habitation will unlock new colony modules, Living Support modules, etc.

No fighter, no bomber, no carriers... But you do have Capital Ships.
